This episode of Flea Market Flip features urban upcyclers Tyagi and Jane going head-to-head with creative best friends Anne and Jenny. Each team gets a $500 budget to find, fix-up and flip projects from items purchased at Connecticut's Elephant's Trunk Country Flea Market. The teams will have only one hour to shop for design projects that feature mixing and matching items to make something new, creating tribute pieces, and a "wild card" project - where anything goes. After haggling for bargains at the flea market, both teams get to work transforming their finds, in the hopes of outselling their competitors at New York's hip flea market, Brooklyn Flea. The team that outsells their competition goes home with $5,000. Hosted by Designer/Flea Market connoisseur and Good Morning America Co-Anchor Lara Spencer.

After upcycling all the used furniture, Lara and the team start the installation. A fight over the curtains causes delays, a misbegotten desk becomes an issues and the layout of the room proves be the biggest challenge. In the end, Lara hopes the family will love the final outcome. In the second story, newlyweds John and Melissa are stuck in the past! Their bedroom was previously John's parent's bedroom, with the same furniture in the exact same layout. Melissa has put her foot down and wants a change. Lara and her team take on the challenge and finds second hand furniture at yard sales, flea markets and consignment shops. While shopping, Lara finds a gorgeous antique bench that she plans on refurbishing. One of her rules is to always do the sit test. As Lara sits down.. she breaks right through the bench! You break, you buy! The team transforms all the found treasures, including the broken bench. Lara also reinvents John and Melissa's bed into a canopy bed, which is no easy task and causes problems for the team. Also during the installation, a beautiful mirror falls complete apart and must be saved. Can the team fix all the problems in time? And what will John and Melissa think of their new bedroom? Will it finally be a place of their very own?

Jen and Alon make their plea to Lara and her design team to transform their completely empty and forgotten living room. They want a warm, sophisticated space to enjoy with their three young daughters. Lara Spencer (Designer/Flea Market expert and Good Morning America Co-Anchor) and her amazing design team take on the challenge! With a shopping budget of fifteen hundred dollars, Lara finds great one-of-a-kind furniture pieces. Using a little elbow grease and a lot of love, Lara and her team transform and customize the second hand treasures into works of art. But not everything goes smoothly. The sofa is accidently recovered in the wrong fabric and the coffee table breaks during the installation. Will Lara and the team overcome the hurdles? And what will the family think once the room is revealed? In the second space, Steph and Arleigh have a dark, awkward basement that needs a complete overhaul. The room has weird nooks, plumbing pipes, AC ducts and 70's ceiling tiles. It's an eyesore and this will be a huge design challenge! But Lara is up to the task. Lara and the team find worn-out furniture pieces, loaded with potential at yard sales, flea markets and estate sales. After everything is refurbished and repurposed, the team has to deal with a challenging installation. Will they be able to figure out a layout for this asymmetrical room? And will the family like it once it's revealed?

Lara Spencer (Designer/Flea Market expert and Good Morning America Anchor) and her amazing design team help Fred and Ingrid completely renovate their storage basement into a chic Moroccan inspired family room. To do this, Lara and the team hunt for second-hand treasures at estate sales, flea markets and consignment shops to transform into chic pieces. An old hutch is updated with a Moroccan twist, a 50s television is turned into a media console, a rustic game table is repainted with an amazing ornate window pattern and two salvaged doors are redesigned as a new custom sliding door. Not everything works out as planned. There's problems with the paint on the table and the installation proves challenging. Eventually the team figures the perfect layout but what will the family think of their new Moroccan inspired entertainment room? For the second family, Lara and the team re-envision Tim and Aimee's kitchen into kitchen and dinning area. Aimee is a breast cancer survivor who wants to have a party to thank her friends and family for supporting her and her family. Lara decides to modernize this space in a blue and yellow palette. Lara and the team track down great used pieces at flea markets, estate sales and consignment shops that can be recycled, reimagined and repurposed. A broke down table proves to be unsalvageable as it breaks while being updated and the team must find solutions on the fly. The kitchen gets a complete demo while the team makes over the room with completely redone second-hand scores. Problems arise but everything is resolved that is until Lara finds out that Tim and Aimee don't like the color yellow which is key to her design in the room! What will the family think once their new kitchen with lots of yellow is revealed?

To do this, they need to find some diamonds in the rough for the space and shop flea markets, yard sales, estate sales and consignment shops. They find some great but worn-out pieces but cannot find the right dining room table. After some deep digging, Lara finds a great dinning table at a consignment shop. Lara's team refurbishes all the second-hand scores and gives the space a custom paint job. To honor the history of the space, Lara works with Scott and Allesandra's children to create a special art project. The installation gets hectic for the whole team as they scramble to get the room done. And what will Scott and Allesandra think of the room once its reveal with all the super glamorous second-hand finds? In the second story, Lara and the team help Irv and Alexis with their abandoned den. At one time, it was the hub of the house but then suffered a mold problem and now has become a sad storage room. Lara chooses to go a different route with this room - she wants to use a variety fabrics and patterns to give this room a fun and funky vibe. To make this a reality, Lara and Sam go shopping at flea markets, estates sales and second hand stores to find used furniture pieces that can be reupholstered with the new fabric choices. Irv and Alexis also have a few sentimental pieces Lara must weave into her design as well, such as Aunt Lil's very outdated Settees and original artwork from Irv's father. Once they have all the furniture pieces, the team paints and reupholsters the new treasures. They create custom pieces for the space and even base the color scheme for the room on Irv's father's artwork. As the installation gets underway and the team is under a time crunch Sam and Bob get into a battle over the curtains which Lara must play peacemaker to resolve. But will the fight between Sam and Bob derail the makeover? And will Irv and Alexis like how Lara and the team reimagined their family heirlooms and their refurb'ed den?

As Texans Chad and Emily looked out over the azure waters of St. Croix they said to themselveswe should have moved here sooner! But as other island homeowners can attest the small availability of homes here can be pretty outdated and buying a home can be a nice chunk of change for a house that doesn't have the right vibe. There is, however, the option of buying beachfront land and building the perfect dream home from scratchthat would certainly provide great ocean views and water access right out the backdoor, but that is also a dicey option fraught with financial risk and a greatly extended time frame. Do Chad and Emily really want to rent for over a year more while they try to manage a huge construction project? So with the help of real estate agent Alexandra Bentley they will try to answer this very question: should they build it, or should they buy it?

They tour three houses with three completely different styles and three unique construction challenges for Chip and Jo. Will they choose the ugly all-brown water-damaged house with the great location, the 1960s traditional with a detached man-cave or the 1970s funky fixer upper with an atrium at the center? After moving eight times, the Ivys are ready to stay put in the right place. The pressure is on for Chip and Jo to renovate a retro residence into the Ivy's last home.

It'll take every penny and all the Gaines' creative gusto to transform this fixer upper from traditional Texas to Old World charm.

Chip and Joanna Gaines take Genny and Russ Davis on a tour through three homes in Woodway, Texas.

However, Genny Davis is a real estate agent and Russ builds new homes for a living and they are a bit reluctant to move into a fixer upper - a fact that distresses Chip but inspires Joanna. Will the Davis' choose the "Tree House" with the pool, massive fireplace and monster tree blocking the front door? Or will it be the asymmetrical "Stonehenge House" Chip says looks like an airplane and Russ describes as over-the-top masculine? Or maybe they'll choose the third house with the shared driveway on a quiet cul-de-sac? The drama escalates when an unexpected permit problem costing 30,000 dollars threatens to turn this fixer upper into a flop. Will the Davis' jump ship and build a new home instead?

Will they choose the charming craftsman? Or 'The Movie Theater House' that Chip describes as a cross between a cinema and a funeral parlor? Or the secluded 'Little House on the Prairie' with a creek in the backyard? Whichever they pick, it's a sure bet that Chip will continue to bug Joanna with his crazy antics.

After working for the past 30 years, Ray finally had enough when his daily commute became too long to bear. He and Allison checked into their finances and determined they could retire early if they found the right place. Their research led them to the resort town of Coronado, Panama. On the hunt for their retirement home in this sunny locale, Allison wants to make the most of their move by living on the beach.

K.J. had a great life and close network of friends in Boston, MA, his home for 16-years. But the city's traffic jams and cold winters were becoming unbearable, and he craved a change of pace and warmer climate. K.J. dreamed of moving to the Caribbean to start a small business, and hoped his girlfriend Kate would come along. When he approached the subject of relocating, Kate threw caution to the wind and agreed, and soon after the couple were bidding farewell to family, friends and their careers. Deciding an American territory was the easiest place to start a business, the duo set their sights on St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands. But once they arrived, it became clear, they were split on where to call home. Kate wanted beach access and a property on the island's tropical north end. But K.J. disagreed, favoring views and an apartment on the livelier east side. And with no jobs, no home and no resolution in sight, they feared the experience would damage their relatively new relationship. Watch as they navigate rocky terrain in St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands.
